This summer, a novel approach to the use of urban spaces will be experimented on Kristiinankatu. The street is made more inviting with flower beds and pedestrian and leisure areas. Moreover, restaurants are allowed to expand their summer terraces on the street during the summer street experiment. The summer street is made even more vibrant by seasonal markets and various events organised on the Event Carpet.

The tendering process for the Science Park deck area connecting Itäharju and Kupittaa is proposed to be launched in summer as a public procurement. The overall plan and the related extensive infrastructure projects will be implemented using an alliance model. The procurement will be sent to the City Board for decision-making before Midsummer.
